Cards 26.10.10

October 26, 2010 at 8:25 am (Arts & Crafts, Birthday Cards, cards)

It seems i’ve taken a break from my other crafts and well i have. Knitting takes too long and i just haven’t been able to work up enthusiasm to do anything with my nails or henna. I do have something on my knitting needles that needs to be finished up for its intended recipient who’s already arrived (somehow i can’t seem to get the baby gifts ready before the baby actually arrives!)

Anyways…here’s a custom order i’ve shipped off. A birthday card ordered by a wife for her elephant obsessed husband!

I’m not happy with the lettering i did for this card but i didnt have time to colour in 2 elephants hence i had to ship it off as is. Fortunately though they are perfectly happy with it as is. Phew!

The next 2 are personal….here’s a card i did for my baby sister for her birthday that just passed.

My sisters a bit of a retro soul so i’m immensely happy with the top portion of the card. I did get carried away with my new embossing tools and i think i could have done better with the bottom section. The envelopes came out just nice though.

Here’s a card for my in-laws on their anniversary.

This was from one of the pictures of them at our wedding reception. I printed out 2 copies of the picture and cut their silhoutte out and raised it with foam tape. I love this card and have nothing i would change on it…well except for the colour of the tag!
